Workflow adhoc triggering

Hi, we have workflow enabled now and I was looking at it for Invoice approval process. Some days we have no invoices, and then other days we may get multiple invoices arriving.
From what I can see Workflow needs a schedule to run (daily, weekly, monthly etc), does that mean we can't trigger a workflow when we want to start an invoice approval flow, but have to wait for its scheduled start?

    You can select workflows as an action button from the UX which does what you want it to

    Workflow can be scheduled and manually also you can trigger it.

  • Can anyone trigger them? As all the staff add invoices, so all would need to be able to trigger them?
    Could workflows be triggered through an action someday?

  • Ok thanks Andrew, will look into that.
